alternatively, we could define it in sys/socket.h since SO* is
reserved there, and tcp.h includes sys/socket.h in extensions mode.
note that SOL_TCP is simply wrong and it's only here for compatibility
with broken applications. the correct argument to pass for setting TCP
socket options is IPPROTO_TCP, which of course has the same value as
SOL_TCP but works everywhere.
this is a trivial no-op, because dlclose never deletes libraries. thus
we might as well have it in the header in case some application wants
it, since we're already providing it anyway.
based on patch by Pierre Carrier <pierre@gcarrier.fr> that just added
the flag constant, but with minimal additional code so that it
actually works as documented. this is a nonstandard option but some
major software (reportedly, Firefox) uses it and it was easy to add
anyway.
the historical mess of having different definitions for C and C++
comes from the historical C definition as (void *)0 and the fact that
(void *)0 can't be used in C++ because it does not convert to other
pointer types implicitly. however, using plain 0 in C++ exposed bugs
in C++ programs that call variadic functions with NULL as an argument
and (wrongly; this is UB) expect it to arrive as a null pointer. on
64-bit machines, the high bits end up containing junk. glibc dodges
the issue by using a GCC extension __null to define NULL; this is
observably non-conforming because a conforming application could
observe the definition of NULL via stringizing and see that it is
neither an integer constant expression with value zero nor such an
expression cast to void.
switching to 0L eliminates the issue and provides compatibility with
broken applications, since on all musl targets, long and pointers have
the same size, representation, and argument-passing convention. we
could maintain separate C and C++ definitions of NULL (i.e. just use
0L on C++ and use (void *)0 on C) but after careful analysis, it seems
extremely difficult for a C program to even determine whether NULL has
integer or pointer type, much less depend in subtle, unintentional
ways, on whether it does. C89 seems to have no way to make the
distinction. on C99, the fact that (int)(void *)0 is not an integer
constant expression, along with subtle VLA/sizeof semantics, can be
used to make the distinction, but many compilers are non-conforming
and give the wrong result to this test anyway. on C11, _Generic can
trivially make the distinction, but it seems unlikely that code
targetting C11 would be so backwards in caring which definition of
NULL an implementation uses.
as such, the simplest path of using the same definition for NULL in
both C and C++ was chosen. the #undef directive was also removed so
that the compiler can catch and give a warning or error on
redefinition if buggy programs have defined their own versions of
NULL prior to inclusion of standard headers.
original FreeSec code accessed keybuf as uint32* and uint8* as well
(incorrectly), this got fixed with an union, but then it seems the
uint32* access is no longer needed so the code can be simplified
the internal sha2 hash sum functions had incorrect array size
in the prototype for the message digest argument, fixed by
using pointer so it is not misleading
added various MS_*, MNT_*, UMOUNT_* flags following the linux
headers, with one exception: MS_NOUSER is defined as (1U<<31)
instead of (1<<31) which invokes undefined behaviour
the S_* flags were removed following glibc
based on linux headers add the missing MCAST_* options
under _GNU_SOURCE as they are not in the reserved namespace
(this api was originally specified by RFC 3678)
this is wasteful and useless from a standpoint of sane programs, but
it is required by the standard, and the current requirements were
upheld with the closure of Austin Group issue #639:
http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=639
common part of erf and erfc was put in a separate function which
saved some space and the new code is using unsigned arithmetics
erfcf had a bug: for some inputs in [7.95,8] the result had
more than 60ulp error: in expf(-z*z - 0.5625f) the argument
must be exact but not enough lowbits of z were zeroed,
-SET_FLOAT_WORD(z, ix&0xfffff000);
+SET_FLOAT_WORD(z, ix&0xffffe000);
fixed the issue
the anonymous struct typedef with array notation breaks with
GCC in C++ mode:
error: non-local function 'static<anonymous struct>
(& boost::signal_handler::jump_buffer())[1]' uses anonymous type
this is a known GCC issue, as search results for that error msg
suggest.
since this is hard to work around in the calling C++ code, a
fix in musl is preferable.
some programs (procps, babl) expect it, and it doesn't seem to
cause any harm to just add it.
it's small and straightforward.
since math.h also defines MAXFLOAT, we undef it in both places,
before defining it.
these flags are needed in order to be able to handle lwp id's
which the kernel returns after clone() calls for new threads
via ptrace(PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG).
fortunately, they're the same for all archs and in the reserved
namespace.
for _Noreturn functions, gcc generates code that trashes the
stack frame, and so it makes it impossible to inspect the causes
of an assert error in gdb.
abort() is not affected (i have not yet investigated why).
both jn and yn functions had integer overflow issues for large
and small n
to handle these issues nm1 (== |n|-1) is used instead of n and -n
in the code and some loops are changed to make sure the iteration
counter does not overflow
(another solution could be to use larger integer type or even double
but that has more size and runtime cost, on x87 loading int64_t or
even uint32_t into an fpu register is more than two times slower than
loading int32_t, and using double for n slows down iteration logic)
yn(-1,0) now returns inf
posix2008 specifies that on overflow and at +-0 all y0,y1,yn functions
return -inf, this is not consistent with math when n<0 odd integer in yn
(eg. when x->0, yn(-1,x)->inf, but historically yn(-1,0) seems to be
special cased and returned -inf)
some threshold values in jnf and ynf were fixed that seems to be
incorrectly copy-pasted from the double version
a common code path in j1 and y1 was factored out so the resulting
object code is a bit smaller
unsigned int arithmetics is used for bit manipulation
j1(-inf) now returns 0 instead of -0
an incorrect threshold in the common code of j1f and y1f got fixed
(this caused spurious overflow and underflow exceptions)
the else branch in pone and pzero functions are fixed
(so code analyzers dont warn about uninitialized values)
a common code path in j0 and y0 was factored out so the resulting
object code is smaller
unsigned int arithmetics is used for bit manipulation
the logic of j0 got a bit simplified (x < 1 case was handled
separately with a bit higher precision than now, but there are large
errors in other domains anyway so that branch has been removed)
some threshold values were adjusted in j0f and y0f
the old definitions were wrong on some archs. actually, EPOLL_NONBLOCK
probably should not even be defined; it is not accepted by the kernel
and it's not clear to me whether it has any use at all, even if it did
work. this issue should be revisited at some point, but I'm leaving it
in place for now in case some applications reference it.
libc is the macro, __libc is the internal symbol, but under some
configurations on old/broken compilers, the symbol might not actually
exist and the libc macro might instead use __libc_loc() to obtain
access to the object.
the previous logic was assuming the kernel would give EINVAL when
passed an invalid address, but instead with MAP_FIXED it was giving
EPERM, as it considered this an attempt to map over kernel memory.
instead of trying to get the kernel to do the rigth thing, the new
code just handles the error in userspace.
I have also cleaned up the code to use a single mask to check for
invalid low bits and unsupported high bits, so it's simpler and more
clearly correct. the old code was actually wrong for sizeof(long)
smaller than sizeof(off_t) but not equal to 4; now it should be
correct for all possibilities.
for 64-bit systems, the low-bits test is new and extraneous (the
kernel should catch the error anyway when the mmap2 syscall is not
used), but it's cheap anyway. if this is an issue, the OFF_MASK
definition could be tweaked to omit the low bits when SYS_mmap2 is not
defined.
__IS_FP is a portable integer constant expression now
(uses that unsigned long long is larger than float)
the result casting logic should work now on all compilers
supporting typeof
